Gosh Canada, you tire of things quickly. This week saw some substantial drops from last week for some of the country’s top shows: Once Upon a Time lost nearly 300,000 viewers, How To Get Away With Murder shed just over 400,000, CSI left behind 435,000, Castle dropped nearly 500,000 viewers and Criminal Minds ceded 662,000.

Some shows actually rose however. The Big Bang Theory gained 128,000 viewers and SHIELD spiked to 2,679,000 viewers to leapfrog over both NCIS and NCIS: New Orleans Tuesday night. The jump of over 350,000 must have had something to do with the massive premiere of The Flash, which bowed with 3,111,000 viewers. I hope it doesn’t get too attached to those numbers because as we’ve seen with a number of shows this fall that viewership can sink quickly if they’re not careful.
